after 48 long years...

.... we r finally on our way to our 2nd Olympics medal!!!!

as we all shld know, the journey to taking a medal from the Olympics is never easy. for Spore, it has always been a great challenge for our athletes. as of today.. we FINALLY made it!

@ abt 2.30pm, i tuned in to Channel 601 on SCV for the Semi-final match between Team Singapore and South Korea. i tot the whole match will be over by 5pm so i arranged to meet Huiying and Philip at 5pm. in the end, the duration of the whole match was much longer than i expected. the whole match only ended at abt 6.15pm... is almost 4hrs tough fight with the South Koreans. thru'out the game, i was screaming, cheering and worrying. i was really excited abt the match, so much so tat my grandma was attracted by my screaming and sat down to enjoy the game with me. whahahaha... it was a very close fight and many times during the game, i tot Team Singapore is going to lose! The South Koreans are absolutely brilliant. they r not only good in their skills, but also mentally strong. in each and every of the game, they r very determined to put up a good fight till the very end. of cos our players are brilliant too. i like the last match of singles very much. it was a deciding match as well as the most entertaining and challenging match. is a test of patience, tactics and alertness. it was seriously a narrow win for Team Singapore... however, no matter wat, it is still a winning moment for us. for now, all we can hope for is tat Singapore can perform as well as they can during the finals on Sunday. Singapore, Way to Go!!!
